HD6.1 Eclipse Watch

The Watch

The Humbert-Droz HD6.1 Eclipse Watch is a masterful expression of French watchmaking expertise. The HD6.1 Panda, Azur, Solaire, and Eclipse are limited editions of 25 pieces each. Its 316L stainless steel case in a cushion shape gives this piece a modern and elegant look. With a diameter of 43.00 mm and a thickness of 14.00 mm, it is perfectly proportioned to command attention on the wrist. Designed for those who value both style and robustness, it features a transparent caseback that reveals the automatic movement, carefully screwed to ensure optimal water resistance and protection. The design harmoniously integrates a winding crown and two pushers to manage the various watch functions.

The Dial

The dial of the Humbert-Droz HD6.1 Eclipse is a deep black, enhanced by a guilloché finish that catches and diffuses light to create mesmerizing visual effects. The Arabic numerals, clearly legible, ensure perfect readability. At the center, three sub-dials enrich the face, featuring a chronograph, a 12-hour indicator, and a small seconds display. The date and day window is strategically positioned for quick and intuitive reading. The sapphire crystal covering the dial provides uncompromising scratch protection.

The Movement

Beating at the heart of the watch is a La Joux-Perret caliber, the L100 - an automatic movement celebrated for its reliability and performance. This Russian-made caliber boasts an impressive 61-hour power reserve, ensuring continuous precision and complete peace of mind for its wearer. It offers several complications, including a chronograph function, and accurately displays hours, minutes, seconds, along with date and day indications. This combination of features makes it an ideal choice for watch enthusiasts and precision timepiece aficionados alike.

The Strap

The black alligator leather strap, matched to the dial, lends a refined and luxurious character to the watch. Featuring elegant contrast stitching, it fastens with a grey folding clasp for a comfortable and secure fit on the wrist. The 22.00 mm lug width is perfectly designed to complement the case, adding to its chic and sophisticated appeal.

Water Resistance

The Humbert-Droz HD6.1 Eclipse is water-resistant to 5 atmospheres, making it capable of withstanding everyday splashes and brief accidental immersions. This means the watch can be worn worry-free during daily activities, with the confidence that its internal mechanism remains fully protected at all times. This feature is an undeniable added value for those seeking a watch that is as technically capable as it is beautiful.
